Odds and Ends



Ok, enough of Charlie Sheen. It's human nature to take a peek at a train wreck, but when you actually see the carnage, it's time to look away. We've reached that point here.


Villanova hoops is going through a rough stretch, but I've been to their practices and Jay Wright is a top-notch coach and a tireless worker. More importantly, he has an excellent graduation rate and teaches his players far more than basketball. He will eventually turn things around.


Call me crazy, but I have a feeling new Cubs manager Mike Quade is the guy that will turn 102 years of frustration on it's ear and end the drought. Maybe not this year, but soon. Go Cubs Go....


And goodbye to actor Carl Betz, who played hubby Alex in the old Donna Reed show.

  1. Yeah, what is up with Villanova hoops? Not only have they lost tons of games they should have won, but they look like the worst coached big college team I've seen in a long time. What changed?

  2. Looks like a lack of on-court poise and leadership to me.
